• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /STMC/CR_MSG815 - Selected tile already exists in dashboard '&1' ?

  The SAP error message /STMC/CR_MSG815 Selected tile already exists in dashboard '&1' typically occurs in the context of SAP Fiori or SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP) when you are trying to add a tile to a dashboard that already contains that tile. This can happen during the customization or configuration of dashboards in the SAP Fiori Launchpad.
  Cause:
  The error indicates that the tile you are attempting to add is already present in the specified dashboard (&1 represents the name of the dashboard). This is a safeguard to prevent duplicate tiles from being added to the same dashboard, which could lead to confusion or clutter.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Existing Tiles: 
  
  Navigate to the dashboard specified in the error message and verify if the tile you are trying to add is already present.
  If it is present, you may not need to add it again.
  
  
  
  Remove Duplicate Tile:
  
  If you find that the tile is already there and you want to add it again for some reason, consider removing the existing tile first before adding it again.
  
  
  
  Modify Tile Configuration:
  
  If you need to have a similar tile with different configurations, consider creating a new tile with a different ID or configuration instead of trying to add the same tile.
  
  
  
  Check for Customizations:
  
  If you are working with custom tiles or dashboards, ensure that there are no conflicts in the naming or IDs of the tiles.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to the SAP Fiori documentation or the specific documentation for the dashboard you are working with for any additional guidelines or best practices.
